Quote: Originally posted by melgross I think I realise what the problem here is. You keep talking about multiple GHz bus's. But that's not the question at all. Ok, I quess we do have to bring Intel into this. Intel's memory bus's have go…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross DDR 2 speeds relate to the argument because they point up an area in which Apple could have easily made a necessary improvement, but didn't. There would have been practically zero cost differential. Neither of…

Quote: Originally posted by Programmer That is a falsehood. Inter-core communication has to pass through the FSB control unit on the chip, but it does not have to actually travel out the FSB and back. This makes a huge difference to its perform…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross Lack of desire doesn't always mean lack of capability. Apple just went to DDR2 533. Why? It offers little advantage. Even cheap PC mobo's are using 667 speeds. There are even 800 speed boards coming out. …

Quote: Originally posted by melgross First of all, I never said it would easy, like the old "rolling off the log" saying. But it isn't THAT impossible either. If Apple wanted to implement it they could. Would the cost go up slightly; sure. Ver…

Quote: Originally posted by Powerdoc What apple say : From the Apple Technical overview PDF file : So for me 1,25 ghz compared to 2,5 is 1/2 ratio. Note that Apple do not say that the bus is double pumped here. The DDR is double pumped, …

Quote: Originally posted by melgross You're missing the point here. Well, no offense, but after the whole "my cordless phone works at several GHz" argument, I tend to think that that statement actually applies to you... Quote: The desi…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross Well, parallel buss's have been on the way out for several years now. How is this relevant when the PPC970 FSB is still a parallel bus? Quote: anyway, it doesn't matter if it's parallel or not, all …

Quote: Originally posted by melgross Well, I've spent over an hour this morning trying to find ANYTHING about the memory controller, but after having gone through over 1,000 articles and multi-page PDF's, I haven't been able to find a single note…

Quote: Originally posted by Booga The motherboard being EFI-only isn't going to stop Windows from being run. It may prevent Windows XP from launching natively off the hardware, but I'll bet dollars to donuts that if MacIntels are EFI-only, someo…

Quote: Originally posted by melgross The memory controller is spec'd for that. It's in the docs. It's supposed to be able to work up to 3GHz full bus speed. Unless the chip doesn't work as well as it should. Care to back that up? (Also, th…

Quote: Originally posted by archrenov8 Actually, it does. If you are on a page that is taller AND wider than the active window, then circular scrolling works. If it is only taler but not wider, circular scrolling would have no purpose. This i…

Added some more instructions on the page, as well as several binary versions of the driver.

Quote: Originally posted by johnq How does one determine whether one's Mac's trackpad is W-Enhanced? Open terminal, then type Code: ioreg -l|grep "W Enhanced Trackpad" If this shows a value of 1, your trackpad is W-Enhanced; if it…

Trackpads on relatively recent models (most AlBooks and probably also recent iBooks) can indeed sense two fingers touching the pad. I played around with AppleADBMouse from the Darwin sources a little bit, and was able to get 2-finger scrolling to wo…

Right, I'm sure Apple's gonna depend on a one-man-shop (1) with zero actual shipping products so far to build a core component for their future systems. "You know it makes sense." (1) Why else would that Gary McMillian guy be an engineer, a PR …

I ordered on 5/18, and I agree that something fishy seems to be going on in your case.

Quote: Originally posted by DeafeningSilence My 30 gb ipod arrived today. Dell never sent out a shipment confirmation email, which I find odd. Yeah, I didn't get a shipment confirmation email either, which seems kinda odd given that I actually…

Very strange, just looked at the order status page again, and apparently, despite the delay notice, my iPod was actually shipped on 06/04. Makes me kinda wonder if their system was just experiencing some kind of glitch, or if this was a deliberate p…

Oh great: Quote: We have reviewed your order. Although we had anticipated being able to ship your order sooner, we are experiencing an unexpected delay and will not be able to ship this order and any associated orders until on or b…
